Recovering electrum wallet via seed

[kaii1505]

Hi everyone.

I still have my seed and my wallet password from electrum.
However whenever i start electrum there is no way to recover a wallet, it always only gives me the option to remake a NEW wallet, not to recover an old one.
I tried redownloading electrum but it's the same over and over again.
Willing to pay some moneys to the person who helps me fix this.

No need to offer a bounty for this question , you were on the right track anyways:
just follow the wizard to create a new wallet, one of the following steps will give you the option to either create a new seed, or re-use an old one (i think the correct phrase is "i already have a seed").

BTW: you don't actually need to use the same password again, just use the same seed and chose any (new) password you'd like.

Don't need to pay money, you were on the correct track:

Just choose in the second image you posted the option "I already have a seed" not the "Create a new seed" then paste you seed then that's all, you can now recover your wallet.

EDIT: Oh it seems mocacinno said it already seconds before me.

I feel utterly retarded now. Is not having slept for 40 hours an excuse? I sure hope it is..... Recovered, thanks for the help and goodnight *sprints to bed*
